From her favorite snack to her astonishing fortune and the nickname her dad has for her, we can confirm that Princess Charlotte is already one of the most fascinating members of the royal family. As this little royal marks her eighth birthday, we wanted to share 8 facts about her that will leave you totally stunned.
Kate and William are just like any parents who show their affection by designating a cute and special name for their kid. When it comes to Kate, she nicknames Charlotte “Lottie.’’ As for her dad, William, he prefers ’’Mignonette,’’ which is a French-inspired word, meaning “cutie.”
During a visit to a school, Camilla, Queen Consort, revealed, ’’I take all my grandchildren down to the garden and they spend hours eating peas.’’ She explained that they enjoy peas straight from the pod.
In September 2016, William and Kate embarked on a tour of Canada, during which an adorable moment occurred when their 16-month-old daughter Charlotte spoke her first words in public.
At the children’s party, the young Princess couldn’t contain her excitement upon seeing some balloons, and she toddled over to them while exclaiming, “Pop!” Later on, Charlotte was also heard saying “Dada” to her father, much to the delight of those who were present.
Kate’s mom, Carole Middleton, revealed that she plants things with her grandchildren. She noted, ’’I like to have it all laid out at ’activity stations’ with their own little trowel and pot so they can get started immediately.’’
The loving grandma also added, ’’It’s important for children to grow up appreciating nature, and part of that is allowing them to get a bit muddy.’’
Charlotte is really active and has a passion for different sports, including gymnastics. Her mom revealed, ’’She’s doing cartwheels, handstands, everything. It’s so good for their basic skills of balance and coordination."
And when she was only 2 years old, it was reported that the princess was enrolled in tennis lessons, and an inside source noted that she is ’’a bit of a natural.’’
It seems that Charlotte got acquainted with the language at quite an early age given that her nanny, Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo, is Spanish.
According to a source, the little girl is ’’very sweet and very confident — she’s always chatting away."
It seems that the princess (as well as her brothers), already knows her way around the kitchen. Kate reportedly said her children ’’made cheesy pasta the other day.’’ She noted, ’’One stirs the flour, one puts the milk and butter in. And they make salads and stuff."
Back in 2020, it was reported that Charlotte’s net worth reached £3 billion, while her older brother Prince George’s net worth was £2.4 billion. This was largely due to the huge endorsement affect the little girl had on a range of products, brands, and types of clothing.
The world was devastated in September 2022 by the loss of Queen Elizabeth II, but it seems that Princess Charlotte has inherited many of the beloved monarch’s physical features and personality traits, and just by observing her, we are instantly reminded of her great-grandmother.
Princess Charlotte seems like such an outgoing, multitalented, and well rounded, little girl. She seems like a curious talented achiever, ready to tackle whatever piques her mind. I hope she continues to be as stimulated by the world around her and to keep acquiring more exciting opportunities to learn, explore, and experience, all of the magnificent things that her life allows her to.
